• • Open Sources file in the directory.
  • Add the Library in TARGETLIBS

$(SDK_LIB_PATH)\comctl32.lib \

• • Add C Defines

• • Create a header file and include the function prototypes
  • Create a CPP file and add the following content

#define MAX_LOOP    10

// This indicates to Prefast that this is a usermode driver file.
__user_driver;

// Module's Activation Context from DLLEntry of process.
HANDLE      ghActCtx = INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE;

    // Return the global.

• • Create a property sheet with the following code

PROPSHEETPAGE MySheet;
// Init property page.
memset(&MySheet, 0, sizeof(PROPSHEETPAGE));
MySheet.dwSize = sizeof(PROPSHEETPAGE);
MySheet.dwFlags = PSP_DEFAULT;
MySheet.hInstance = ghInstance;

MySheet.pfnDlgProc =  PropPageProc; // Callback Function
MySheet.pszIcon = MAKEINTRESOURCE(IDI_ICON);
MySheet.hActCtx = GetMyActivationContext(ghInstance);

// Set the flag to indicate that our PROPSHEETPAGE
// has an Activation Context.
// The Activation Context indicates with version of
// comctl for Compstui to create our PROPSHEETPAGE
// with. To get Themed UI we need to specify comctl v6.
if ((NULL != MySheet.hActCtx) && (INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE != MySheet.hActCtx))
{
MySheet.dwFlags |= PSP_USEFUSIONCONTEXT;
}

• Create a Manifest file in the same directory and name it as theme.manifest
